The DS is not a console it is a handheld. Technically it does not really count if it outsells the PS2 in ltd sales. But I believe the Wii has a 50% chance of eventually outselling the PS2 in ltd sales assuming the successor of the Wii is delayed and the Wii continues to outsell the PS2 in weekly sales.
The Wii trying to maintain its sales pace against the PS2 of last generation.
Important to note the Wii will achieve 100 million sales after 5 years. It took over 6 years for the PS2 to reach 100 million ltd sales.
If the DS is counted, all iterations of the Gameboy should be counted. The Gameboy sold a huge number of units over its lifetime and different iterations. 200 million Game boy units had been sold.
